Mrs. Roper Romp returns to Rehoboth Sept. 21
The second annual Mrs. Roper Romp in Rehoboth Beach will kick off with a group photo at 12:45 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 21, at the bandstand.
A costumed bar crawl, the romp is based on Mrs. Helen Roper, a character on the 1970s TV show, “Three’s Company.” Mrs. Roper was the wisecracking, caftan-wearing, love-deprived wife of landlord Stanley Roper. The romp began in 2013 as a Million Mrs. Roper March of men and women wearing caftans and curly red wigs during a New Orleans parade. Today, there are countless Mrs. Roper Romp/Bar Crawl groups all over the world.
From 1 to 4 p.m., partygoers will romp all over downtown Rehoboth Beach to take advantage of food and drink specials, photo opportunities, live DJs, contests and other entertainment. More than 15 local merchants are expected to participate. More detailed information, including a complete list of participating venues, can be found at sites.google.com/view/mrsroperrehoboth.
